Written Question
Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: Senior Civil Servants
Tuesday 27th October 2020

Asked by: Baroness Kramer (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many BAME civil servants there are at the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government at (1) SCS1, (2) SCS2, (3) SCS3, and (4) SCS4, grade.

Answered by Lord Greenhalgh

The Department collects this information from employees who declare their ethnicity on a voluntary basis. Due to the number of SCS declaring and the data protection risk this creates, we are unable to breakdown this information by SCS grade from 1 to 4, as requested.

Published Annual Civil Service statistics include BAME representation by Department and can be found (attached) here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/civil-service-statistics-2020

Asked by: Baroness Kramer (Liberal Democrat - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what was the total block grant given to Richmond Council in each of the last five years for which figures are available.

Answered by Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth

It is not possible to directly compare the figures across years due to changes in the services funded through the block grant for each year. However, I will place the figures in question in the libraries of both Houses.
